Paratransit training is an exciting project for Delancey Street because through it we were able to turn a volunteer service into an actual skills training and income generating training school. For our first ten years, Delancey Street escorted senior citizens and provided entertainment and activities, including a weekly dinner at one of our facilities for numerous seniors in the community.

For the past twenty-five years Delancey Street, under contract to various agencies, has been providing unlimited group van service for handicapped, elderly and disabled residents who are unable to use public transportation by themselves and who are thus certified by the City of San Francisco to use Paratransit services.
